Qatar favoured due to higher wages

Potential expats wishing to get the best from their careers may like to choose Qatar as their new nation.

Recent research by portal qatarvisitor.com reveals that many emigrants opt to move to the region due to its high wages.

The study may interest Britons who are intending to make money transfers to fund their new lives overseas.

Some 46.8 per cent of expats living the area were motivated to relocate to the region to benefit from higher wages and boost their incomes.

It appears the recession and a competitive job market may also be a contributing factor to Brits moving abroad, as 8.8 per cent of people revealed they relocated to Qatar to avoid facing unemployment in their home country.

Elsewhere, Greece was recently highlighted by the Greek National Tourism Organisation as a popular destination for retiring Brits, due to the country's affordable cost of living.
